Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of this study (pilot trial) is to compare the efficacy of 6 mg Teikoku Tulobuterol Tape (TTT) with placebo in patients with persistent bronchial asthma. ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the inclusion/exclusion criteria and efficacy parameters for use in further tulobuterol development studies. Another objective of this study is to gather safety data of TTT in the applied dosage of 6 mg per day.;Primary end point(s): Mean change from baseline (V3) up to the end of treatment period week 8 (V7) of pre-bronchodilator FEV1 (% from baseline) in clinic visit.
